Why could the mass of argon be greater than the mass of potassium even though it has a lower atomic number?

Chemistry
1 answer:
lesya [120]3 years ago
6 0

The mass given on the periodic table is the weighted average of the abundance of isotopes. Because heavier isotopes (more neutrons) of argon are more abundant than potassium's, by pure statistics, argon will appear with a greater mass on the periodic table.


in easy way

we can also say :- Argon has  greater proportions of heavier isotopes with more neutrons than potassium.

What is the energy of a photon of red light that has a frequency of 4.48 X 10^14Hz?
lana [24]

Answer:

E = 29.7× 10⁻²⁰  j

Explanation:

Given data;

Frequency of light = 4.48 × 10¹⁴ Hz

Energy of photon = ?

Solution:

Formula:

E = h.f

E = energy of photon

h = planck's constant

f = frequency

E = h.f

E = 6.63 × 10⁻³⁴ Kg.m² /s × 4.48 × 10¹⁴ s⁻¹

E = 29.7× 10⁻²⁰ Kg.m²/s²

Kg.m²/s² = j

E = 29.7× 10⁻²⁰  j

What volume of Co2 (carbon (iv) oxide)
hram777 [196]

Answer:

2.1056L or 2105.6mL

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole in 10g of Na2CO3. This can be obtained as follow:

Molar mass of Na2CO3 = (23x2) + 12 + (16x3) = 106g/mol

Mass of Na2CO3 = 10g

Mole of Na2CO3 =.?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Na2CO3 = 10/106

Mole of Na2CO3 = 0.094 mole

Next, we shall determine the number of mole CO2 produced by the reaction of 0.094 mole of Na2CO3. This is illustrated below:

Na2CO3 + 2HCl —> 2NaCl + H2O + CO2

From the balanced equation above,

1 mole of Na2CO3 reacted to produce 1 mole of CO2.

Therefore, 0.094 mole of Na2CO3 will also react to 0.094 mole of CO2.

Next, we shall determine the volume occupied by 0.094 mole of CO2 at STP. This is illustrated below:

1 mole of a gas occupy 22.4L at STP. This implies that 1 mole CO2 occupies 22.4L at STP.

Now, if 1 mole of CO2 occupy 22.4L at STP, then, 0.094 mole of CO2 will occupy = 0.094 x 22.4 = 2.1056L

Therefore, the volume of CO2 produced is 2.1056L or 2105.6mL

The standard free energy of activation of one reaction A is 95.00 kJ mol–1 (22.71 kcal mol–1). The standard free energy of activ
diamong [38]

Answer:

The answer to the questions are as follows

Reaction B is 4426.28 times faster than reaction A

(b) Reaction B is faster.

Explanation:

To solve the question we are meant to compare both reactions to see which one is faster

The values of the given activation energies are as follows

For A

Ea = 95.00 kJ mol–1 (22.71 kcal mol–1) and

for  B

Ea = 74.20 kJ mol–1 (17.73 kcal mol–1)

T is the same for both reactions and is equal to 298 k

Concentration of both reaction = 1M

The Arrhenius Law is given by

k = Ae^{\frac{-E_{a} }{RT} }

Where

k = rate constant

Ea = activation energy

R = universal gas constant

T = temperature  (Kelvin )

A = Arrhenius factor

Therefore

For reaction A, the rate constant k₁ is given by k₁ = Ae^{\frac{-95000}{(8.314)(298)} }

And for B the rate constant k₂ is given by k₂ = Ae^{\frac{-74200 }{(8.314)(298)} }

k₁ = A×2.225×10⁻¹⁷

k₂ = A×9.850×10⁻¹⁴

As seen from the above Reaction B is faster than reaction A by (A×9.850×10⁻¹⁴)/(A×2.225×10⁻¹⁷) or 4426.28 times
